Aldebaran is a major Confederation
port and administrative and supply center. Beyond this, it is also noted
for its many floral varieties and unspoiled wilderness. A very popular
tourist attraction and vacation spot, Aldebaran boasts a wide variety of exotic
foods and wines found nowhere else in the galaxy. After Arcturus, it is
the largest center of corporate holdings outside the original boundaries of
the Confederation.
